Hi Martin, 

Thanks for that, our problem was indeed that someone had edited .bashrc and had added echo lines to create a MOTD effect - having moved these to /etc/motd everything is working as expected now. 

Thanks, 
Marcus

Subject: Re: Directory listing fails for specific user 

Hi, 

we had a similar issue when one of our users has modified his .bashrc 
such that it was supposed to execute commands upon login, but they were 
called without absolute path and stored in non-default locations (i.e. a 
prior modification of the $PATH by profile.d was required). 
In an interactive bash a full profile was loaded and therefore it 
worked, but transferring files did not work, because that was not a 
login shell and thus the commands were not found and caused the error. 
Putting the commands into .profile instead of .bashrc solved the problem. 

That was Scientific Linux 6 (a RHEL clone), and I think it was with scp 
and not with sftp, but it might be related).

For example, the output of a working user connecting to the same server is: http://pastebin.com/6VtcCPhg (filezilla) and http://pastebin.com/9ETc8JSS (openssh). I'm at a complete loss as to what may be causing this and cannot find anyone on t'internet with the same issue.
